Social Isolation
Dr. David Shapiro
Psychologist, California Licensed Psychologist (License# PSY17495)
Humans are social animals. We are not the fastest animals nor the strongest, but one of our greatest strengths is that we are able work together and coordinate. People tend to be more emotionally healthy when they are connected to others. When cut off from social support people tend to not do as well in many areas of functioning. A variety of factors can result in isolation, including situational factors, as well as personal factors. Not everyone has the same social needs. Some people like to have one or two people very close to them, and others like to have a broad and active social life. As a clinician, taking into account people's relationships and social supports is a very important dimension in understanding what may be holding them back from thriving. Then understanding what is interfering with them having the relationships that would serve them well to have becomes another important step in the therapeutic process, and then this understanding can be used to support the client in taking the steps necessary to overcome those barriers. Quite often I help clients with this through what is called Interpersonal Psychotherapy, which involves making room in the therapy for hearing about the clients social interactions and relationships and then helping my clients to consider more effective ways of responding to others. Other times I help my clients become involved in new activities and communities which will provide opportunities to form new relationships.

Social Isolation
Dr. Sven Schild
Psychologist, PhD, SEP, TCC
My approach to working with social isolation involves integrating Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), and Somatic Experiencing (SE). ACT helps clients accept their feelings of loneliness and social withdrawal without judgment, while committing to actions that align with their values and foster connection. EMDR is used to process and resolve traumatic or negative social experiences that may contribute to isolation, reducing their emotional impact and promoting healing. SE addresses the physiological effects of social isolation, helping clients release stored tension and restore a sense of balance and safety. This holistic approach aims to reduce feelings of isolation, enhance social engagement, and improve overall emotional well-being.

Julie Millman
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW
Loneliness is a much more common experience than most realize. Statistics indicate three out of every 5 adults complain of loneliness. That is ALOT of loneliness! Here we are experiencing this phenomenon in our individual houses and cubicles at work. We find ourselves at home "doing social life" on our computers instead of in person. All of course amplified/aggravated since the pandemic. Lets develop some goals to reduce the loneliness in your life. Lets strategize the steps you may be willing to consider to change this experience!
